We had been fighting for weeks about me becoming a vampire. Lately things had been getting intimate and I knew Edward didn't want to hold back anymore. I was trying to time this perfectly, playing it up. He would crack any day now. I know I shouldn't do this, but it's for the best. Without Edward, I would be nothing and I'm sure he feels the same way.
We were on our way to the Cullens' when I decided to put my plan into action.
"Edward?"
"Hmm?"
"Are you ever going to change me?" I asked, but I knew the answer. I just wished he would see my side of things.
"Bella, let's not start this again."
"Why not? I love you and I want to spend forever with you. Is that so much to ask?"
He sighed with defeat. "I want to spend eternity with you too."
An immeasurable silence followed. So many things were buzzing around in my head. Is he really going to? I know he doesn't want to hold back anymore.
"Bella?"
"Yes?"
"When we get to my house, I need to ask you something. Ok?
"OK" Oh no! What could it be? What if he asks me to stay away from him? I knew he loved me too much to, but still, what if he did? Had I pushed him to far? Will he leave? Panic swept over me.
In a matter of minutes, we had stopped and Edward was pulling me out of his Volvo. When we got in the familiar house I realized that no one else was there. Now I was really nervous. Edward slung me over his back and ran up the stairs to his room. He sat on the couch with me in his lap.
"Bella, I have an important question for you," he said with a slight hint of hesitation.
"What is it? You can ask me anything,"I said with instant regret. What if he asked me to leave?
"Well, um, will you, uh, God this is hard."
"Go on,"I urged.
"Okay, Bella, will you...um, will you marry me?" He spoke in a rush.
"Oh Edward! Of course!"I didn't need to think. I always wanted to be with him. Now, I knew he wouldn't leave. Calm spread, as if Jasper were there. But I knew that Edward was the only one who could give me this kind of relief.
"I'm so glad you want to! When do you want to have our wedding?"
"As soon as possible! How about next month?"
"I think we can manage that."His face lit up with that crooked smile I loved.
I was so happy! I knew I would finally be just like him!
"Will you change me before or after the wedding?"I asked without thinking. I didn't want to spoil the mood, but I just had to know.
"What do you want?"
"Well, I was thinking two weeks before the wedding. If that's not too soon for you."
"No, that's fine."
Thefew weeksflew by just like that. Once again, I was Alice's Barbie Doll. Ugh! She tried out all kinds of different hair styles and dresses on me. After she finally decided that, she took me lingerie shopping. The whole time, my face was beet red. Charlie wasn't too ecstatic about my sudden engagement, but he finally warmed up to the idea. The night before my transformation was at hand.
Edward and I were in my room spending my last night as a human together. He was singing me to sleep with my lullaby. Just as I was about to drift into dreamland, Edward began to speak.
"Bella, are you sure you want me to change you?"
"Of course, Edward. I want nothing more than to be with you for the rest of forever."
"Good."
"I love you Edward and I always will."
"And I will love you forever and eternity."
With that I fell asleep.

Bella was asleep now, which left me to ponder the concequences of what we were going to do tomorrow. I had gone hunting yesterday to keep my thirst in check. I didn't want anything to go wrong. I just don't want her to regret this later. I couldn't live knowing that I caused my Bella eternal pain. But my selfish side always kicked in at this point in my argument with myself. I loved Bella far too much to leave her. To see her grow up, marry another,age and die. Dying was the last thing I could see her do.
Just as my inner-fight was getting heated, Bella stirred. I knew she would begin talking now.
"Mrs. Bella Cullen. Love Edward. Forever." I smiled at her. I loved when she said things like that in her sleep. It reassured me that she would never regret this.
Her sleep-talking continued for a while longer and then she fell into a deep sleep. The show was over for tonight. With that, my internal battle resumed.
